Strengths side by side

Where each model shines, according to benchmarks and provider positioning.

Gemini 3.1 Pro

1. Google's most advanced reasoning Gemini model

  • Designed to solve complex problems across multimodal inputs, including text, audio, images, video, PDFs, and full code repositories.
  • Google highlights improved software engineering behavior, better agentic performance, and stronger usability in domains like finance and spreadsheets.

2. Large multimodal context with substantial output room

  • Supports a 1,048,576 token input context window for large repositories, long documents, and multi-source workflows.
  • Allows up to 65,536 output tokens for longer answers, plans, and code generations.

3. More efficient thinking with expanded controls

  • Improves token efficiency and reasoning performance across use cases.
  • Adds the MEDIUM thinking_level option to better balance cost, speed, and quality.

4. Strong support for production agents

  • Supports grounding with Google Search, code execution, function calling, structured outputs, context caching, RAG, and chat completions.
  • Also offers a custom-tools endpoint tuned for agentic workflows that mix bash-like tools with custom code tools.

FAQs

Is Gemini 3.1 Pro cheaper than Gemini 3 Pro?

They cost the same overall: both charge $4 per million input tokens and $18 per million output tokens.

Which has the larger context window, Gemini 3.1 Pro or Gemini 3 Pro?

Gemini 3.1 Pro has the larger context window at 1.05M tokens, compared to 1M tokens for Gemini 3 Pro. A larger window means the model can consider more text at once - useful for long contracts, codebases, or months of records.

Should I use Gemini 3.1 Pro or Gemini 3 Pro?

It depends on the job. Compare the pricing, context window, and strengths above against your workload - and remember the choice isn't permanent. In Appaca you can build a tool on Gemini 3.1 Pro, test the same tool on Gemini 3 Pro, and switch at any time without rebuilding anything.
